In addition, you can try this:

tcpdump -i "interface name" -s 1518 -lenvv host "whatever host" and port 110 -w /tmp/"file name"

Hola !

Im trying read with tcpdump or snort the mail messages downloaded by
pop3.  But can see the message content.    How can "assembly" the
message readed with the sniffer?

        I think you are trying to do something like this:

        tcpdump -s 2000 port 110 -w /tmp/data-to-port-110

        And to see the binary log:

        strings /tmp/data-to-port-110

        Saludos !
